.If the subject is not in the center of the frame...
“Focus lock” (page 44) is the name of a technique you can use when you want to shoot an image in which the subject to be focused on is not within the focus frame in the center of the screen.
Holding the Camera Correctly
Your images will not come out clearly if you | Horizontal | Vertical |
move the camera when you press the | ||
shutter button. When pressing the shutter |
|
|
button, be sure to hold the camera as |
|
|
shown in the illustration near by, and keep it |
|
|
still by pressing your arms firmly against |
|
|
your sides as you shoot. |
|
|
Holding the camera still, carefully press the |
|
|
shutter button and take care to avoid all |
|
|
movement as the shutter releases and for a
few moments after it releases. This is especially important when available lighting is low, which slows down the shutter speed.
